The cold weather is here and our Meals on Wheels clients know it! Many live without heat in their homes and since most of our clients are elderly, this puts their health at risk. We’re doing a HOT drive to collect 100 portable heaters. Help a senior stay warm this season by purchasing a heater from our Amazon wish list page or by sending a designated gift to us of $50 for each heater. Your gift will literally warm the heart of someone who needs your help.

“Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.” – Martin Luther King Jr.

Join us on Monday, January 16th as we host our 6th Annual MLK National Day of Service Meals on Wheels delivery. On this holiday, you can serve the community with family and friends by delivering a hot, nutritious meal to Meals on Wheels clients. Sign up for this popular volunteer opportunity by contacting Kim Peters at Petersk@vnatexas.org or (214) 689-2210 with your contact information (name, phone & email) by Monday, January 9th.

It's a fresh new year, full of possibilities and challenges. With 10,000 people in the United States turning 65 each day, there are so many opportunities for us to serve our senior population. Together, we can fulfill the VNA mission of providing care and services allowing for independence and dignity.

For more than 80 years, VNA has been actively assisting the community with your assistance and support. Whether we are delivering a hot, nutritious meal or caring for a patient at the end of their life, we know that people are depending on us for the help they desperately need. Wishing you a year of health and happiness in 2017!

Gratefully,

President & CEO VNA Texas
